Risk levelHigh

0–100, higher is better. How it is calculated

SIA STAALF is a Latvian industrial company specializing in metalworking, welding, mechanics, and electromechanical services. The company provides repair and maintenance of mechanical aggregates including engines and diesel generators, as well as installation and servicing of electrical equipment. The website targets industrial clients in Latvia and presents a basic but functional online presence with multilingual support in Russian, Latvian, and English. The business model is primarily B2B focused on manufacturing and industrial services within the regional market. Technically, the website uses legacy jQuery libraries and custom scripts for navigation and slideshow features. The CMS identified is MCMS, an older content management system. The site lacks modern security features such as HTTPS, security headers, and privacy or cookie policies, indicating a low level of digital maturity. Performance and mobile optimization are basic, and no analytics or tracking tools are detected. From a security perspective, the absence of HTTPS and security headers is a significant concern. No vulnerability disclosures, incident response contacts, or certifications are provided, limiting the security posture. The WHOIS data could not be retrieved due to query limits, but the website content and contact information appear consistent with a legitimate small industrial business. Overall, the site scores moderately on business credibility but poorly on privacy compliance and security. Strategically, the company should prioritize implementing HTTPS, adding privacy and cookie policies to comply with GDPR, and enhancing security headers to protect visitors. Improving mobile responsiveness and accessibility would also enhance user experience and trust. Establishing clear incident response and vulnerability disclosure mechanisms would further strengthen security culture and compliance.

This scan rated NIS2 with an earlier keyword method that is no longer shown; rescan for the per-article view. Risk management, continuity, supply chain, training, MFA, management oversight (Art. 20) and incident reporting (Art. 23) need internal evidence, and Guard cannot tell whether NIS2 applies to this organisation.

GDPR is indicative only, based on publicly visible signals: Articles 7, 12, 13 and 32 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive. Not a certification or legal assessment.

Priority findings

9 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • Critical

      EU business without adequate privacy measures

      EU businesses are subject to strict GDPR requirements

      What to do: Implement comprehensive GDPR compliance including privacy policy, cookie consent, and data protection measures

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

  2. Security headers

    Security headers are instructions your web server sends to every visitor’s browser. Missing ones leave visitors more exposed to attacks such as clickjacking and injected scripts.

    • High

      Forces HTTPS connections

      What to do: Add "Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains; preload"

Results by check

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.

How this score is calculated

The security score runs 0–100, higher is better. It is the plain average of the security checks that completed in this scan, each counted equally. A check that could not run is left out: it counts neither as a pass nor as a fail.

Not counted

  • NIS2 outside view: Re-weights evidence from the TLS, email, DNS, network and hygiene checks, so counting it would count that evidence twice. Shown on its own.
  • OffSeq Observations: An AI reading of the site, useful context but not reproducible evidence. Shown on its own.

Findings that cap the score at 49

Each of these is serious on its own, so while any is present the site cannot rate better than high risk, however good the other checks are.

  • The certificate is not trusted by browsers
  • The website is not served over HTTPS
  • A database, remote desktop, file-sharing or Telnet service is reachable from the internet
  • The page loads a script from a compromised source
  • The domain registration has expired
  • SPF authorises every server to send mail as the domain

Partial scans

When the site blocks Guard or most checks cannot run, the score covers only the checks that ran (usually DNS and email), is capped at 75 and is shown as partial, without a risk level.

Business context

Business profile

SIA STAALF operates in the manufacturing and energy sectors, focusing on metalworking and electromechanical services. The company serves industrial clients requiring welding, mechanics, and electrical equipment maintenance. The business model is B2B with a regional focus in Latvia. The website indicates a small-sized company with no parent or subsidiary affiliations. The company provides clear contact information but lacks visible certifications or trust badges. The absence of privacy and security policies suggests limited compliance maturity. No partnerships or related domains are identified. The company’s competitive advantage lies in its specialized industrial services, but digital presence and marketing are minimal, indicating potential growth opportunities through modernization and enhanced online engagement.

Security posture

The website’s security posture is weak due to the lack of HTTPS, absence of security headers, and no visible privacy or cookie policies. No incident response or vulnerability disclosure information is provided, which limits preparedness for security incidents. The use of older JavaScript libraries may pose potential vulnerabilities if not updated. No analytics or tracking scripts reduce privacy risks but also indicate limited user behavior insights. The WHOIS data is unavailable, reducing transparency. Overall, the site demonstrates low security maturity with significant room for improvement to meet GDPR and industry best practices.

Recommendations

  1. Implement HTTPS with a valid SSL/TLS certificate to secure all communications.
  2. Add comprehensive privacy and cookie policies to ensure GDPR compliance.
  3. Deploy security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-XSS-Protection.
  4. Establish a vulnerability disclosure policy and provide incident response contact information.
  5. Improve mobile optimization and accessibility to enhance user experience and trust.

Technical notes

Notes

The website uses legacy jQuery libraries and custom JavaScript for UI components like mega menus and slideshows. The CMS is MCMS, which may be outdated and lack modern security features. The site design is basic with limited mobile responsiveness and accessibility features. No modern frameworks or platforms are detected. Performance is moderate but could benefit from optimization. No analytics or marketing tools are integrated, indicating minimal digital marketing efforts. The absence of HTTPS and security headers represents a technical risk. Overall, the technical infrastructure is functional but outdated and requires modernization to improve security, performance, and user experience.
Standards and sources

Reference chips under each finding point to the standard, regulation or specification the finding relates to. They are taken from the official datasets below and mapped conservatively: a finding with no defensible link shows none. NIS2 and GDPR references mark where a finding is relevant evidence, not a compliance verdict. Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690 binds digital infrastructure and digital service providers; for other entities it is the most detailed public reading of the Article 21 measures. WCAG, EN 301 549, European Accessibility Act and Web Accessibility Directive references name the requirement an automated accessibility rule relates to; they are not a conformance verdict.
